People's National Congress of Guyana

The People's National Congress (PNC) is a socialist political party in Guyana that was founded in 1957. The PNC split from the People's Progressive Party of Guyana, and it dominated politics during the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s; in 1992, the PPP defeated the PNC. The PNC held the support of many African people in Guyana, rivalling the predominantly-Indian PPP party.
